I won't say that being chaste is inherently bad. Nor is fucking around inherently good. Thouhg both views can and should co-exist, and nobody really needs sex to be happy.

Well, it's been seen as wrong for millennia. Even the most sex-positive of people can say that promiscuity can have drawbacks. The spread of STIs, unwanted pregnancies, sexual assault, etc. It just means sleeping around should be done responsibly. Whether a person is sex-positive or closed-off sexually is just personal choice.

So why didn't you tell the police then?

Morals are just human inventions. So they are not objective in the philosophical definition of the term. they don't exist independently of humanity. -
But then because you have a pretty face, you get to decide who says or does what in life lol. i won't ever do as you say. why must I? don't you say you believe in autonomy?

Most humans have bigotries in some form. I don't really respect people who say that's not true. They're either deluded or blind. Humans can be nasty. Humans have a tendency to desire dominion over others. Humans also like to "other-ise" people. It's why people are homophobic, racist, sexist, etc. Sadly, this trait hasn't changed, and may not change.

Well, the road to Hell is paved with good intentions. good intentions mean little, ultimately. I have to agree, this post won't help the most hardened of incels. They've probably tried this and it doesn't work. Or they'd say it still keeps their problems. What can help incels is they didn't learn basic points as youths. Maybe due to a mix of neurodiversity or wilful ignorance. As most incels tend ton be neurodiverse, they slipped through the net, or had no family or friends who were willing or able to guide them.

Porn is fine if it's used sparingly just as a way to relieve horniness or express oneself sexually. the issue is overuse or not having the critical thinking skills not to see it as fantasy and not reality.

I didn't even refer to birth rates. I'm not sure what game you're playing but i won't partake. Whether Europe is "finished" or not is moot. There isn't a continent that doesn't have issues. Your "higher birth rate" Africa is hardly unscathed! -

I'm not Swedish and don't really care about their issues. However, it's a fact that Japan and South Korea have very low birth rates in world terms. Lower than many European countries. I don't see what all this has to do with the general point though. I'd argue that high birth rates mean nothing if it leads to poverty. yes, more people would live but people like to and should live in decent conditions. -
bebotalk replied to Shodburrito's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
lol. you specialise in unrelated waffle, with an attempt to gaslight based on "norms of humanity" that your guru taught you. Birth rates are falling globally. Japan and South Korea are worse affected compared to Europe. I merely said that most regions have issues. No region is perfect. China might invade Taiwan. India and Pakistan have been at it for decades. There are migrant crises the world over. You're saying Europe is uniquely fucked, I disagree. You're annoyed somebody is disagreeing with your points. All due to the beliefs of some "guru" who mostly isn't that smart himself. -
I suppose it's more likely.

With respect, are you British? The Tories' unpopularity is just self-evident, and for the reasons I've stated. Even the most ardent Tory voters would agree, and expect to lose. It's about "moral projection", just a reality of matters on the ground. Nothing I said was that out of place. Maybe ask British people, and might well concur with my points.

More waffle. Asia and Africa as labels are social constructs also. -

So you're salty over human nature. People conquer. get over it. Angry over shit that happened centuries before you were born. Funny how Indians never bitch about the Mughals, or the Chinese about the Mongols, or black South Africans about the Zulus. Pretty sure the Asante in modern-day Ghana spread by conquest. The Incas grew by conquest. Islam was spread by Arabs by conquest. The Romans conquered other white Europeans. But oh no, blame Europeans for doing what others did centuries or millennia prior! blame human nature. -
bebotalk replied to Shodburrito's topic in Society, Politics, Government, Environment, Current Events
What's the deal with? so by your logic, no country or region can solve problems? looool. Pretty sure most regions have issues. Africa does, Asia does, whether East or South. Your point is waffle and yes, people never should face and overcome challenges, ever. -

Libertarians overrate the importance of freedom. Yes, we do like to be free in a specific sense. But how much latitude people want in their lives is relative. Libertarians will remain a fringe for this reason, and most aren't willing to compromise on their highfalutin beliefs. People don't live in theory. Theory only matters if it translates to the real world. There's a reason why communism and fascism took off. They helped people understand their realities. Mao won the Chinese Civil War and established the PRC because he convinced the Chinese that the ROC/Chiang was more of the same they had experienced for millennia. Similar is true of the Bolsheviks in Russia. Both Mussolini and Hitler made out fascism to be the solution to Italy and Germany's respective problems. Libertarians don't get how humans are, and that we're not robots. -

No, just your point was waffle. Did German come from China or something? it's pretty much natively European. -
Most still use fiat currencies. bitcoin really is still just an online thing. The potential, for now, has been wasted.

looool. doesn't the OP get how humans communicate? or he only reserves the right to be irreverent to himself?

Democracy is ingrained in Europe and originated in Europe. -

Europe should emphasise more on integration and allow people of similar cultural values to enter. If this means that only native European languages are spoken in official settings, or accessing healthcare and education, so be it. -
The VP's powers are limited. The POTUS controls the executive branch. VP IMHO doesn't count. THe constitution just says the VP fills in the POTUS if he is incapacitated or vactes office and controls the Senate.

Libertarianism is a cringe ideology based on highfalutin theory that can only work in a given time or place. The state isn't the "evil" boogeyman that libertarians believe it is. -
America still has no female leader yet. looool. Plenty of other Western countries have. Britain has had three!
